Subject: It's probably "DuMont" as well.

"You asked for it" aired on the DuMont network until Dec. 7, 1951. This show features a tribute to Lou Gehrig. During that segment there was mention of his farewell at Yankee stadium 12 years ago. That of course was on July 4, 1939.

Subject: Mixed Bag

Mixed bag episode of "YOU ASKED FOR IT", featuring some very nice things and some not so nice things. I love that bullet proof vest demonstation, I thought that was cool. But that clown act is too french for my taste.
